Re: What do I do now?

Are the two 120mm intake fans undervolted or running full speed? Two full speed 120mm intakes and only two 80mm exhausts gives you significantly more flow into the case than out and a high case pressure which actually increases temperatures. For optimum results you want either balanced or slightly lower.

If temps still stay above 60C with a high overclock you should reapply the thermal paste on the CNPS9700.

Don't be afraid to lax the RAM timings from 5-5-5-15 to achieve higher clocks.
